Gentlemen:
You have requested my opinion for use in conjunction with a Rule 24f-2
Notice for Fortress Municipal Income Fund, Inc. ("Corporation") to be filed in
respect of shares of the Corporation ("Shares") sold for the fiscal year ended
August 30, 1995, pursuant to the Corporation's registration statement filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under the Securities Act of 1933
(File No.33-11410) ("Registration Statement").
In its Registration Statement, the Corporation elected to register an
indefinite number of shares pursuant to the provisions of Investment Company Act
Rule 24f-2.
As counsel I have participated in the preparation and filing of the
Corporation's amended Registration Statement under the Securities Act of 1933.
Further, I have examined and am familiar with the provisions of the Articles of
Incorporation dated December 2, 1986, the Bylaws of the Corporation and such
other documents and records deemed relevant. I have also reviewed questions of
law and consulted with counsel thereon as deemed necessary or appropriate by me
for the purposes of this opinion.
On the basis of the foregoing, it is my opinion the Shares sold for the
fiscal year ended August 30, 1995, registration of which the Rule 24f-2 Notice
makes definite in number, were legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable by
the Corporation.
I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Rule
24f-2 Notice referred to above, the Registration Statement of the Corporation
and to any application or registration statement filed under the securities laws
of any of the States of the United States.
The foregoing opinion is limited to the Federal laws of the United States
and the laws of the State of Maryland, and I am expressing no opinion as to the
effect of the laws of any other jurisdiction.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Charles H. Field
